Long Way Down

When I woke up this morning
I had a smile on my face
I had a dream about us and the places
We've been
I enjoyed your sweet loving voice and
The way you spoke to me
I recalled the fun and the laughter and
Living in sweet ecstasy
A thought just came to my mind
And like a child I cried
It's the fear of it all coming down when
You are flying this high

'Cause it's a long way down
Yeah it's a long way down
Before my feet hit the ground
It's a long way down

I've been tryin' for weeks now
To get you on the phone
But all I got is this busy-tone
In my ear
Won't you tell me what you're dreamin'
And what life you would live?
I cannot read between those lines, I
Just don't want to forgive
After all there's no guarantees
There's no right way or wrong
Just stand up for what you believe in
Take a breath and it's gone

'Cause it's a long way down
Yeah it's a long way down
Before my feet hit the ground
It's a long way down

After all there's no guarantees
There's no right way or wrong
Just stand up for what you believe in
Take a breath and it's gone

'Cause it's a long way down
Yeah it's a long way down
Before my feet hit the ground
It's a long way down
A thought just came to my mind
And like a child I cried
It's the fear of it all coming down when
You are flying this high


Takes a little lighter pace. It's about being really happy on one hand and being terrified of losing all of that on the other. Uncertainty creeping up on you. Written about ten years ago on acoustic guitar.
